18 principal place of business from and on which he conducts the business for
19 which he is licensed, he shall immediately notify the department and upon
20 demand by the department shall deliver the dealer's license, which shall be

34 business, and a new license shall be granted for the unexpired portion of the
35 term of the license.
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
RS 15954
A vehicle manufacturers license is a class of license,
defined in section 49-1606(4), Idaho Code, issued to persons
to engage in the business of constructing or assembling
vehicles subject to registration under the motor vehicle
code, at an "established place of business within Idaho."
The purpose of this legislation is to clarify that a
vehicle manufacturer's license shall not issue to an
applicant that does not have an "established place of
business within Idaho" and to require the licensee to notify
the Department of Transportation of any change in address or
location of the licensee's place of business during the
license period. Upon such notification, a new license will
be issued to the licensee for the new location for the
balance of the license term.
FISCAL NOTE
There is no fiscal impact to state or local funds as a
result of this legislation.
